Description
Attorney Docket No. OS-1-302 REFLECTOR LAMP
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION/
This application claims priority from Provisional Patent Application Serial No.: 60/ , , filed September 8, 2005.
TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates generally to electric lamps and more particularly reflector lamps.
Still more particularly, it relates to electrical contacts therefor.
BACKGROUND ART
Reflector lamps, in sizes such as PAR 20 and Par 30, have been employed for many years as floodlights and spot lights. The lamps utilize a light source such as an incandescent filament, a halogen capsule or arc discharge tube. When the latter is used the arc tube is often enclosed in a transparent shield. The lamp otherwise includes a body containing the light source and a base for connection to a power supply.
The most common base employed is the standard Edison-type screw base. One of the lamp lead-in wires is connected to the screw portion and the other lead-in wire is connected to the center contact (the eyelet) that is electrically insulated from the screw portion. In previous lamps employing a light source capsule, the light source capsule was cemented into the reflector body using a manual jig to achieve proper location. The capsule was inserted into the jig and a retaining disk was inserted over the press seal of the capsule to hold the capsule in position until the cement cured. This is a manual operation and is very labor intensive. To electrically couple the capsule to the base two wires were utilized, one wire being welded to each capsule lead-in wire. One of the wires is fed through an aperture in the eyelet of the base and fixed thereto, usually by soldering, and the second wire, serving as a grounding wire, is connected to the screw portion of the base. These manual operations are tedious and expensive.
Attorney Docket No. OS-1-302 DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
It is, therefore, an object of the invention to obviate the disadvantages of the prior art.
It is another object of the invention to enhance the manufacture of lamps.
These objects are accomplished, in one aspect of the invention, by a lamp envelope comprising a body having a bottom with a channel; a seat formed with said bottom adjacent to said channel; and an electrical contact having a first depending leg, an intermediate transverse portion including a seat engager adapted to cooperate with said seat, and a projecting leg extending away from said intermediate transverse portion and along a side of said bottom.
The objects are further accomplished by a lamp comprising: a lamp envelope having a body with a bottom having a channels a seat formed with said bottom adjacent said channel; a light source capsule having a base with two electrical lead-ins extending therefrom, said base being received in said channel; and an electrical contact having a first depending leg, an intermediate transverse portion including a seat engager adapted to cooperate with said seat, and a projecting leg extending away from said intermediate transverse portion and along a side of said bottom, said first depending leg being in mechanical and electrical contact with one of said lead-ins.
This electrical contact provides both electrical and mechanical support for the light source capsule and is automatable, eliminating much hand labor. The contact is rugged and is produced from flat stock and bent with simple machine tooling.

Fig. 4 is a similar view of yet another alternate embodiment;
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 3 and illustrating the adaptability of invention to various sizes of lamps; and Fig. 6 is a diagrammatic end view of a lamp envelope bottom in another aspect of the invention.
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
For a better understanding of the present invention, together with other and further objects, advantages and capabilities thereof, reference is made to the following disclosure and appended claims taken in conjunction with the above-described drawings.
Referring now to the drawings with greater particularity, there is shown in Fig. 1 a lamp 50 comprising a lamp envelope 10 having a body 12 with a bottom 14 having a lead-in accepting channel 18. A lens or cover SOa closes the body 12. A seat 22 is formed with the bottom 14 adjacent the lead-in accepting channel 18. A light source capsule 51 has two electrical lead-ins 52, 54 extending from a rectangular capsule base 20, which fits into the channel 18. The light source capsule 51 can comprise an arc discharge tube 51 a sealed into a transparent shield 51 b. Alternatively, the light source can be a filamented lamp, such as a tungsten halogen capsule.
An electrical contact 24, one form of which is shown in Fig. 2, has a first depending leg 26, an intermediate transverse portion 28 including a seat engager 30 adapted to Attorney Docket No. OS-1-302 cooperate with the seat 22, and a projecting leg 32 extending away from the intermediate transverse portion 28 and along a side 34 of the bottom 14, the first depending leg 26 being in mechanical and electrical contact with one of the lead-ins, for example, 54.
Preferably, the attachment to the lead-in is by welding. If desired, the projecting leg 32 can engage a groove formed in the side 34.
A terminus 36 of the projecting leg 32 is formed with a reentrant portion 38.
The body 12 of the lamp 50 has a lamp base 16, which has a pair of electrical contacts 40, 42 insulated from each other. In a preferred embodiment the lamp base 16 is a standard Edison base wherein the electrical contact 40 is the screw portion and contact 42 is the eyelet. The terminus 36 of the projecting leg 32 makes electrical connection with the electrical contact 40, as by welding, and the terminus 36 can be provided with a divot 60 to insure the proper location of the weld.
For the contacts 24, 24a and 24c (Figs. 2, 3 and 5) the seat 22 can include two spaced-apart grooves for receiving the two spaced-apart wings 30a, 30b.
Alternatively, the wings 30a, 30b can have a friction fit with the seat 22.
Another alternate contact, 24b, which is illustrated in Fig. 4, includes a boss 30c that fits into a dimple 44, (see Fig. 6) which is formed in the bottom 14.
If desired the depending leg 26 of the contacts 24 can be formed with a semi-cylindrical configuration, to more closely match the configuration of the lead-in 54.
In some lamp types, for example, in a PAR 20 lamp, the bottom or heel 14 can have a rectangular projection and the intermediate transverse portion 28 can easily be formed to accommodate this feature, as shown in Fig. 3, wherein the intermediate transverse portion 28 has a stamped feature 70 to fit a rectangular projection.
Attorney Docket No. OS-1-302 As shown in Fig. 5, a contact 24c can be provided with a transverse portion 28a that is substantially wider than the transverse portion 28 of contacts 24, 24a and 24b, thus allowing the contact 24 to be used with multiple varieties of lamps.
To assemble a lamp 50 the light source 51 has its capsule base 20 inserted into the channel 18. The contact 24 (or 24a or 24b) is fitted tightly against the bottom 14 with the wings 30a and 30b engaging the seat 22 and the depending leg 26 is attached, as by welding, to the lead-in 54, and wire 72 is attached to the other lead-in 52.
The lamp base 16 is then applied with the end 73 of the wire 72 fed through the eyelet 42 and the leading edge 74 of the screw portion 40 of the lamp base 16 entering the reentrant portion 38 of the terminus 36 of the projecting leg 32. With the lamp base 16 in proper position the terminus 36 is welded to the screw portion 40 and the end 73 is welded or soldered to the eyelet 42.
Subsequently the cover or lens SOa can be applied to complete the lamp.
Thus, the application of the contact 24 provides both the electrical connection and the necessary mechanical support for the light source 51, eliminating much of the former hand labor previously required. It is readily automated further eliminating additional hand labor and improving efficiency of assembly operations. Further, by varying the size of the transverse portion 28 the contact is readily adaptable to many lamp types.
While there have been shown and described what are present considered to be the preferred embodiments of the invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made herein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
